Subject: [dxld] Radio Ethiopia 7200
My Christmas morning DX - 7200 Radio Ethiopia, 1600 25 Dec, weak with IS matching what's posted on intervalsignals.net, then ID in English, of which I caught "...external service of Radio Ethiopia broadcasting in English in the 31 meter band and 41 meter band, (unintelligible) medium wave". News followed, but quickly covered by ham QRM. Aoki has them listed in English at this time on 7235 & 9560. 7200 seems like an odd choice for an external service, with Sudan and Eritrea using the frequency as well. I also had talk and distinctive theme music, presumably from Ethiopia, in unknown language with fair signal at 1520-1535 UT. (Bruce Portzer, Seattle-WA-USA, Winradio Excalibur, K9AY antenna) Merry Christmas everyone
